Injury Assessment Services
Acute Physiotherapy Assessment
The assessment involves a review of the acute injury and implementation of appropriate evidence-based interventions.
The assessment will:
- Assist in a prompt diagnosis
- Review the appropriateness of or guide medical certification
- Provide recommendations regarding specialist or investigative/ imaging referral
- Gain an understanding of critical job demands required for resumption of pre-injury duties
- Provide information regarding injury recovery, reassurance and prompt resumption of all activities
- Immediate establishment of workplace and home self management strategies
- Early screening for psychosocial and environmental barriers to the RTW process
Physiotherapy treatment is generally only advocated in the first 6 weeks following which time the worker is transferred into a program stream depending on the level of associated factors. A same day initial appointment and report guarantee is provided to our key customers
